Description: The LOAD CARD submenu contains cards that define applied forces.
Usage:
1. DSI prompts:
> SELECT OPTION
Note: All of these options share this standard submenu. Only the CREATE command differs with respect to each function and will be explained in the following pages.
CREATE • Defines a new card.
DELETE • Deletes a selected card or cards from those displayed in a pop-up window.
LIST • Lists the cards in the option's database via pop-up window.
MODIFY • Similar to the CREATE command, this command lists the defined cards in a pop-up window and allows the user to select and modify them.

Description: This card defines a distributed traction load along any local axis, beam, or set of beams. Refer to the LS-DYNA User's Manual for further description.
Description: This card defines a blast
load. Refer to the LS-DYNA User's Manual for further description.
Description: This card defines body force loads due to a prescribed base acceleration or angular velocity using global axes directions. Refer to the LS-DYNA User's Manual for further description.
Description: This card defines pressure loads due to explosion. Refer to the LS-DYNA User's Manual for further description.
Description: This card defines density versus depth for gravity loading. Refer to the LS-DYNA User's Manual for further description.
Description: This card defines solid elements or solid element sets with heat generation. Refer to the LS-DYNA User's Manual for further description.
Description: This card defines mask load. Refer to the LS-DYNA User's Manual for further description.
Description: This card defines a concentrated nodal force to a node or a set of nodes. Refer to the LS-DYNA User's Manual for further description.
Description: This card applies a concentrated nodal force to a rigid body. The force is applied at the center of mass, or a moment is applied around a global axis. Refer to the LS-DYNA User's Manual for further description.
Description: This card defines a distributed pressure load over one triangular or quadrilateral segment defined by four nodes. Refer to the LS-DYNA User's Manual for further description.
Description: This card defines a distributed pressure load over one shell element or shell element set. Refer to the LS-DYNA User's Manual for further description.
Description: This card is used to perform superplastic forming analyses. This option can be applied to both solid and shell elements. Refer to the LS-DYNA User's Manual for further description.
Description: This card defines the effects of the primary explosion and the subsequent bubble oscillations. Refer to the LS-DYNA User's Manual for further description.
Description: This card defines nodal temperatures that thermally load the structure. Refer to the LS-DYNA User's Manual for further description.
